Ready Player One

First OFF LOVE THIS Movie so when we got the option to read the book I jumped on it. when i First saw the trailer for this movie I saw all the references and easter eggs and I just loved each and every one of them. And being a gamer myself the whole concept of VR to this extent is amazing and I hope one day we will get to that kind of reality but hopefully without the whole world looking like its going to shit and hopefully without people just replacing their everyday lives with the game and not actually going outside. So the main part of this story is taken place in THE OASIS. Takes place in the year 2045 and essentially the main character Wade is set out to find the egg but in order to get to this he has to get 3 keys. He eventually meets other players in his little journey Artemis being one of them who becomes a love interest for our character Wade. Eventually he finds everything finds the Easter Egg by finding all the keys and eventually tells artemis how feels and once he finally

AYE and Gomorrah

This short story piece is very different from anything that I have ever read before, LIKE WOW. I never would have thought of this as a concept on what to write but wow. Being neutered before puberty is such a painful thing to read about. This whole story revolves around spacers and Frieks and how one likes being chased by the other even though knowing that they are essentially unattainable. And they like that feeling of being wanted by the other so like that's like a whole different game that they are playing. And well this kind of reminds me of how even in todays society the gay community are still not accepted all over. I have a lot of friends that I made that are very different from what I'm used to seeing back where I'm from in the ghetto haha you don't really see much gay people or trans people. But coming here I've actually became friends and even close friends with some and I just dont understand how people are still not accepting of them. Someones personal s

The Martian

I'm very much a huge fan of sci-fi, monsters, aliens, etc so when I saw the Martian as an option I hopped on that to read because. The original Alien films from back in the day I loved it. There's a lot of science details that you actually don't get too much information on in sci-fi like they just expect you to just say yeah this does this just because for story reasons. But in this story it actually gets into detail behind the science. The whole concept for traveling to mars or better yet actually living in mars has been talked about for quite awhile now but in the story it talks about a NASA team actually going to mars. But when a storm happens they leave a man behind because they thought he died or something and leave him for dead essentially but he wasn't dead. So that kinda put the guy in a real bad spot for when he realized that he was on his own and had to do whatever it takes for him to survive and wait for rescue. And this guy used literally everything from his

Anansi Boys

This story is a bit odd when it came to reading it. I never once thought about a book that would end up being into some sort of musical. But as for starters the story revolves around Charles. He is one of the sons of the spider god Anansi. He has a long lost brother called Spider. Thats a pretty weird name for a long lost brother but for this story it makes sense. But one day he just shows up into his life and they both go out to try to get over the recent death of their father. But it was weird because it's still fresh and new that he is the long lost son. Mr.Nancy dies pretty early on in the story which is pretty sad because thats kinda how his two sons get to know eachother by going out and grieving over their recently late father. Another thing I found weird was how the mom doesn't really approve of Rosie. I understand being distant from your father but when Charlie has no idea where his father is or his phone number or anything like that. Thats like hardcore not knowing an

The Hobbit

The Hobbit is like the beginning of an origin story for an adventure for good ol Bilbo Baggins. He's a regular Hobbit living in his rather nice Hobbit hole when suddenly he was bombarded with an adventure, something that he really wasn't interested in at first. But they are in need of an expert Burglar a thief but Bilbo Baggins is no thief or an expert at that so he really was hesitant at first but eventually he gave in and decided to go along and that is the start of the adventure for our Hobbit Bilbo. And throughout this adventure he learns a lot from this adventure when he sees the dwarves in action he and all the struggles that they had to go through especially when deaths start to happen. Bilbo eventually learns how to be a thief throughout the adventure. Throughout all his struggles in his journey Bilbo has learned a lot after this grand adventure he took he did a lot of memorable things and in the end he just needs to go home and with that said Gandalf took him home. So

Harry Potter Sorcerers of stone

Ah Harry Potter I remember watching the movies as a kid I actually never got to finish the whole movie series back in the day. So like maybe the last 2 or 3 movies I probably haven't watched but as for the books, as a kid I was super intimidated with how big the books were and with every sequel got bigger and bigger and I was never a fan of reading as a kid so I always stayed away. But for this reading I chose to do Harry Potter Sorcerer's of stone from J.K. Rowling. Reading this classic book reminded me how much similar it is to the movie and how there are more stuff that the movies leave out which is classic for movies to do. The sorting hat where people would be chosen by the hat to go to their respected houses was always a favorite scene of mine seeing people based on how they are go to their houses that best suits them was always fun to watch. And finding out that Harry could talk to snakes early on before even going to school. Knowing that you would think he would go to S
